Transparent Shift:

Today I decided to explore another Gadget that I don’t often use in Korg’s Gadget, today it was Wolfsburg; this has 6 instances of that and one of London for the drums. I also used Dedalus.

Miserable Hero:
More from my Holiday Gadgetfest.
An interesting side effect of some one like me, who has no idea of the intricate tangle of electronica and EDM genres, using an app like Gadget which is equipped with a plethora of sounds from across that arcane spectrum, is that I use the sounds with no knowledge of those original contexts and therefore create a mishmash; one that is perhaps painful to the aficionado. This idea is interesting and fun to me.
An interesting side effect of getting up in the early hours of the morning because I can’t sleep, is that my mind runs along funny lines like this.
No matter, I am definitely embracing my inner EDM guy with this current Gadget fixation and I hope you are enjoying the ride.

Day 319: Tuesday 12 July 2016 [Day 13 Holiday]
Major Farce:
A slow Chill Ambient piece. Another of my holiday Gadget explorations, this time I thought I would concentrate on one of the Gadgets that I haven’t used before, I really am only scratching the surface of what’s possible in this app.
Changmai is the Gadget I explored today, 6 instances of it in fact plus one of Bilbao for the drums.

Day 318: Monday 11 June 2016 [Day 12 Holiday]
Explode With Me My Love:
A Noisescape that I made for a little change of pace. Actually it seems to end a little soon, perhaps it is part one of an extended piece…we’ll have to wait and see.
I began in Borderlands with two tracks that I had recorded earlier with my MicroBrute through BiasFX. The feedback sounds are from Dedalus. The drum bits were midi exported from DM1 to 8 seperate tracks in Auria and given to one of the inbuilt kits which were then treated with Caramel.

Basic Image Declined:
A very slow, almost sedate Beatscape made with Gadget, AudioShare, and Dedalus. It slowly evolves into an almost broken ambience with the addition of acoustic and electric piano in the final third.

Blue Jack Ramble:
Downtempo EDM from Gadget once more. I’m still on holiday which means I have limited time at the moment. It’s just so quick and fun to do these whip these up, I can’t resist 🙂
Assistance also from AudioShare, ApeFilter, Dedalus, and TwistedWave. You know, the usual crew.

More Gadget based downtempo electronica made with the assistance of AudioShare, ApeFilter, Dedalus, and Auria.

Sorry if things seem to be stagnating, it’s because I’m on hols and out of my comfort zone. I’ll try something different tomorrow I promise.
